With our emotional(情感的)memory, we recall situations or places where we had；strong feelings，perhaps of happiness or unhappiness．We also have special memories for smell，taste，touch and sound，and for performing physical movements．

We have two ways of storing any of these memories．Our short-term memory stores items for up to thirty

seconds-enough to remember a telephone number while we dial. Our long-term memory，on the other hand，may store items for a lifetime．Older people in fact have a much biter long-term memory than short-term．They may forget what they have done only a few hours ago，but have the clearest remembrance(记忆)of when they were very young．

Psychologists tell US that we only remember a few facts about our past，and that we invent the rest．It is as though we remember only the outline of a story．We then make up the details．We 0ften do this in the way we want to remember them，usually SO that we appear as the heroes of our own past，or maybe victims needing sympathy(同情)．

16. Visual memory helps US recall a place we have been to.

A. Right B. Wrong C. Not mentioned

17. Visual memory may be used when we read a story

A. Right B. Wrong C. Not mentioned 18. Verbal memory helps US read words we have never heard A. Right B. Wrong C. Not mentioned 19. Emotional memory is used when we perform physical movements A. Right B. Wrong C. Not mentioned 20. Animals do not have a long-term memory A. Right B. Wrong C. Not mentioned 21. Long—term memory is more important than short-term memory． A. Right B. Wrong C. Not mentioned 22. Generally we remember only a few facts about the past．A. Right B. Wrong C. Not mentioned 第3部分：概括大意与完成句子(第23～30题，每题1分，共8分) 下面的短文后有2项测试任务：(1)第23~26题要求从所给的6个选项中为第1～4段每段选择1个最佳标题；(2)第27~--30题要求从所给的6个选项中为每个句子确定1个最佳选项。 What Do Dreams Tell Us? 1Why do we dream? Do dreams have meanings? These are

questions which have troubled man for thousands of

years．The oldest surviving book on the interpretation of dreams is Egyptian and is nearly 4，000 years old．In ancient Greece，it was thought that people who were ill could be cured by telling their dreams．They would relate their dreams to their doctors who would tell them what they meant．and then give them medicine to make them well．The ancient Chinese believed that if a pregnant woman dreamed of a bear，she would have a son，and if she dreamed of a snake，she would have a daughter．There are many stories about dreams foretelling(预言)the future．

2 We certainly do not now believe that dreams foretell the future．Most scientists believe that dreams are based on events in our own life and on our feelings．The events are usually very recent，mostly within the last two days．Our emotions，on the other hand，our wishes，hopes and fears. may go back many years，even to early childhood．

3 In a dream，events are altered．A dream J11ay contain parts of many real—life events．Most importantly, something that cannot be shown directly may be shown indirectly．For example，you might dream of driving a large car．This could mean not that you want to have a larger car，but that you desire power，and maybe you want to control other

people．Again，you may dream that you are an actor in a play．The play is about to start，but you have completely forgoes your lines．This dream may seem strange because you are not interested in acting，and you never want to be in a play．But the dream may mean that you have some other problem that you feel is too difficult for you to solve． 4 Psychologists believe that dreams may be helpful to us．Indeed，people who have been allowed to sleep in experiments，but not allowed to dream，have become anxious and restless．And when they are later allowed to sleep as much as they like，they dream more than ever to make us for the Lost“dream time”． 23 Paragraph 1_______________ 24 Paragraph 2_______________ 25 Paragraph 3_______________ 26 Paragraph 4_______________ A Structure and interpretation of a dream B Ancient views on dreams C Babies dream less than older children D Dreaming may be good for our health E Dreams cannot foretell the future F Healthy people do not dream 27 The ancient Greeks believed that their _________could be cured by telling their dreams. 28 Most scientists believe that dreams have something to do with_________ daily life.

29 If you dream of driving a large car, it could mean that you

want___________

30 When people are not allowed to dream during sleep, they become__________

A power B quiet and happy C events

D experiments E diseases F worried and nervous 第4部分：阅读理解(第31～45题，每题3分，共45分) 下面有3篇短文，每篇短文后有5道题。请根据短文内容，为每题确定1个最佳选项。

第一篇暂缺

第二篇Stop Eating Too Much

“Clean your plate! ”and“ Be a member of the clean—plate club!” Just about every kid in the US has heard this from a parent or grandparent．Often．it's accompanied by an appeal：“Just think about those starving orphans(孤儿)in Africa!”Sure，we should be grateful for every bite of

food．Unfortunately, many people in the US take too many bites．Instead of staying“clean the plate”，perhaps we should save some food for tomorrow．

According to news reports，US restaurants are partly to blame for the growing bellies (肚子)．A waiter puts a plate of food in front of each customer，with two to four times the amount recommended by the government，according to a USA Today story．Americans traditionally associate quantity with value and most restaurants try to give them that．They prefer to have customers complain about too much food rather than too little． Barbara Rolls，a nutrition(营养)professor at Pennsylvania State University，told USA Today that restaurant portion sizes began to grow in the 1970s，the same time that the American waistline(腰围)began to expand． Health experts have tried to get many restaurants to serve smaller portions．Now， apparently，some customers are calling for this too．The restaurant industry trade magazine QSR reported last month that 57 percent of more than 4，000 people surveyed believed restaurants served portions that were too large；23 percent had no opinion；20 percent disagreed．But a closer look at the survey indicates that many Americans who can’t afford fine dining still prefer large portions．Seventy percent of those earning at least $150，000 per year prefer smaller portions；but only 45 percent of those earning less than $25，000 want smaller． It's not that working class Americans don’t want to eat healthy．It's just that，after long hours at low-paying jobs，getting less on their plate hardly seems like a good deal．They live from paycheck(薪金支票)to paycheck，happy to save a little money for next year’S Christmas presents． 题目暂缺 第三篇Sunspots

It’s not surprising that sunspots(太阳黑子)were observed by ancient astronomers(天文学家)．The largest sunspots on the sun can be seen without a telescope. It was not until the．invention of the telescope(望远镜)in the early 17th

century, however，that systematic studies of sunspots could be undertaken．The great astronomer Galileo was among the first to make telescopic observations of sunspots． Sunspots are regions of extremely strong magnetic

fields(磁场)found on the sun’s surface．A sunspot has a dark central core known as the umbra．The umbra is surrounded by a dark ring called the penumbra，where the magnetic field spreads outward．Sunspots appear dark because they are giving off less radiation．They are cooler than the rest of the sun’s Surface．

Sunspots are frequently observed in pairs or in paired groups．The members of a spot pair are identified as the leading spot and the following spot．They are identified by their position in the pair in terms of the direction in which the sun rotates(旋转)．

The number of sunspots at any one time varies。A large spot group may consist of as many as 10 groups and 300 Spots across the Sun．The number of spots changes in a fairly regular pattern called the sunspot cycle．The largest number occurs about every 11years．At sunspot minimum，there are at most just a few small spots． The average lifetime of an individual spot group is roughly one solar rotation，which is about 25 days．The most persistent large spots，however，can survive for two to three months 41. Careful observations and systematic studies of sunspots A. were made by ancient astronomers. B. started in the early 17th century. C. were made by Galileo only. D. could be made without a telescope. 42. Sunspots are cooler than the rest of the sun's surface because A. they produce less energy. B. they are buried in the sun. C. they are far away from magnetic fields. D. they are close to magnetic fields. 43. The leading spot and the following spot are the names of A. two large sunspots. B. a large spot and a small spot. C. the two spots in a spot pair. D. the central core and the ring around it. 44. If an intense sunspot activity-had occurred in 1857, the next one would have been in A. 1858. B. 1862. C. 1865. D. 1868. 45. In the last paragraph the word "persistent" means

A. important B. effective. C. enduring. D. visible.
